Coffee Party – Monday August 8th – Naked Bean

Sir Patrick Stewart as Jean-Luc Picard in Star Trek: The Next Generation

“Tea, Earl Grey, hot.” Being both a Star Trek and tea fan, this line has always appealed to me.

I have spent a lifetime, “going for coffee” with friends and family. At first, I would order coffee, just to be polite and to fit in, but I soon realized that I don’t like coffee and it feels the same way about me. I finally know that I can still be a proud Canadian without a “double-double” in my hand.

But I’m still going to a coffee party next week and you should come too. I’d invite you to a tea party but then you would have all sorts of ideas – frilly dresses, big hats and porcelain cups, and pinkies in the air. This is a coffee party – you can dress and hold your cup however you want.
